Assignment: Personal Leadership PhilosophiesMany of us can think of leaders we have come to admire, be they historical figures, pillars of the industry we work in, or leaders we know personally. The leadership of individuals such as Abraham Lincoln and Margaret Thatcher has been studied and discussed repeatedly. However, you may have interacted with leaders you feel demonstrated equally competent leadership without ever having a book written about their approaches.What makes great leaders great? Every leader is different, of course, but one area of commonality is the leadership philosophy that great leaders develop and practice. A leadership philosophy is basically an attitude held by leaders that acts as a guiding principle for their behavior. While formal theories on leadership continue to evolve over time, great leaders seem to adhere to an overarching philosophy that steers their actions.What is your leadership philosophy? In this Assignment, you will explore what guides your own leadership.To Prepare:Identify two to three scholarly resources, in addition to this Module’s readings, that evaluate the impact of leadership behaviors in creating healthy work environments.Reflect on the leadership behaviors presented in the three resources that you selected for review.Reflect on your results of the CliftonStrengths Assessment, and consider how the results relate to your leadership traits.Download your Signature Theme Report to submit for this Assignment.The Assignment (3-4 pages):Personal Leadership PhilosophiesDevelop and submit a personal leadership philosophy that reflects what you think are characteristics of a good leader.

Tools for Measuring Quality

Quality in other areas of our lives can be subjective, so as it relates to our nursing practice, how do we specifically ensure that quality is clearly defined and measurable?Tools for measuring quality are used to assess the value measured, collected, or compared. These tools allow for subjectivity to be replaced with objectivity through data, formula, ranking, and analysis.For this Assignment, you will explore at least three rate-based measures of quality. You will deconstruct each measure to explore your understanding of the it, including its importance and its impact on patient safety, the cost of healthcare, and the overall quality of healthcare.The Assignment: (8–10 pages)Describe the three rate-based measures of quality you selected, and explain why.Deconstruct each measure to include the following:Describe the definition of the measure.Explain the numerical description of how the measure is constructed (the numerator/denominator measure counts, the formula used to construct the rate, etc.).Explain how the data for this measure are collected.Describe how the measurement is compared externally to other like settings, and differentiate between the actual rate and a percentile ranking. Be specific.Explain whether the measure is risk adjusted or not. If so, explain briefly how this is accomplished.Describe how goals might be set for each measure in an aggressive organization, which is seeking to excel in the marketplace. Be specific and provide examples.Describe the importance of each measure to a chosen clinical organization and setting.Using the websites and resources you can choose a hospital, a nursing home, a home health agency, a dialysis center, a health plan, an outpatient clinic, or private office. A total population of patient types is also acceptable, but please be specific as to the setting. That is, if you are interested in patients with chronic illness across the continuum of care, you might home in a particular health plan, a multispecialty practice setting or a healthcare organization with both inpatient and outpatient/clinic settings.Note: Faculty appointments and academic settings arenotpermitted for this exercise. For all other settings, consult the Instructor for guidance. You do not need actual data from a given organization to complete this Assignment.Explain how each measure you selected relates to patient safety, to the cost of poor quality, and to the overall cost of healthcare delivery. Be specific and provide examples.

Applying Project Management Approaches for a Quality Improvement Practice Gap

Project management allows for a clear and focused workflow to approach an issue or task. These approaches streamline a process, allow for checks and balances, and ensure all stakeholders are active participants in the process. Project management approaches often utilize SMART objectives to define and set the objectives for the project.Each letter of the acronym SMART defines a different criterion for the objective. A SMART objective is specific, measurable, assignable, realistic, and timely. These objectives help to steer the work and direct the stakeholders to the completion of the project.For this Assignment, you will reflect on project management approaches that could be used to address a quality improvement practice gap. You will develop SMART objectives for the planning and execution of a quality improvement project, and will consider potential project management approaches or activities that could be used in executing this project.To Prepare:Review the Learning Resources for this week, and consider the approaches of project management.Refer to the Week 3 Discussion, and reflect on the quality improvement practice gap you identified.Consider how you might apply the project management approaches examined this week to address the quality improvement practice gap you identified.Think about how you might develop SMART objectives for the planning and execution of a project to address the quality improvement practice gap you identified.Consider any other project management approaches or activities you might recommend using for your project that will address the quality improvement practice gap you identified.The Assignment: (2–3 pages)Briefly describe the quality improvement practice gap you identified in your nursing practice or organization. Be specific.Develop at least two SMART objectives you might apply in the project planning phase or execution phase to address the quality improvement practice gap you identified.Recommend at least two project management activities you would use for your project, addressing the quality improvement practice gap you identified. Explain your justification for why these activities would provide the best support. Be specific and provide examples.
